The Kazakhstan Massacre: Killing Hope to Benefit US Geopolitical Interests
http://www.truth-out.org/kazakhstan-massacre-killing-hope-benefit-us-geopol=
itical-interests/1331142602
Steve Horn and Allen Ruff, Truthout: "December 16, 2011, should have been, =
at minimum, a fairly bright day for the people of Kazakhstan marking the co=
untry's Independence Day and 20th birthday. But rather than being a moment =
of celebration, it became a day of brutal repression and death, a bloody sc=
ene in the regional center of Zhanaozen paralleling those that occurred at =
the hands of US-supported dictatorial regimes during the uprisings now comm=
only referred to as the Arab Spring."

Politicians Won't Return Ponzi Payoffs
http://www.truth-out.org/politicians-wont-return-ponzi-payoffs/1331400527
Michael Winship, Moyers & Co.: "On Tuesday, Texas financier Robert Allen St=
anford was convicted in a Houston federal court on 13 out of 14 criminal co=
unts of fraud=E2=80=A6. But what most of this week's stories failed to ment=
ion was the large amount of his clients' cash that was spent on campaign co=
ntributions, greasing the corrupt nexus of money and politics for personal =
gain. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were given to candidates, including =
Barack Obama, John McCain, John Boehner and Harry Reid; as well as national=
 fundraising committees for the Republican and Democratic parties."

Economy Continued Strong Jobs Growth in February
http://www.truth-out.org/economy-continued-strong-jobs-growth-february/1331=
391056
Shaila Dewan, The New York Times News Service: "After a stretch of economic=
 expansion so weak that Main Street struggled to detect any improvement, th=
ree consecutive months of solid employment growth have begun to lift the mo=
od of consumers and the unemployed. The economy added 227,000 jobs in Febru=
ary, the Labor Department reported, and though the unemployment rate held s=
teady at 8.3 percent, that was largely because nearly half a million people=
 had joined, or resumed, the search for work in hopes their prospects had i=
mproved."

Women's Rights Are Human Rights
http://www.truth-out.org/womens-rights-are-human-rights/1331395410
Ron Jacobs, The Rag Blog: "Besides the fact that it celebrates women in a s=
ociety primarily controlled by men, it is the socialist roots of Internatio=
nal Women's Day that have discouraged its celebration in the United States=
=E2=80=A6. The insistent capitalism of America's ruling classes will not so=
 much as even acknowledge a holiday determined by the workers that celebrat=
es something besides the domination of Wall Street and Washington."

After a Decade, Afghan Forces Don't Trust Americans
http://www.truth-out.org/after-decade-afghan-forces-dont-trust-americans/13=
31392048
Jon Stephenson and Ali Safi, McClatchy Newspapers: "Afghan soldiers and pol=
ice say the recent burning of Qurans by U.S. personnel has seriously underm=
ined their trust in their American counterparts, suggesting that the decade=
-long campaign to win hearts and minds has not only failed but also threate=
ns the Obama administration's exit strategy. 'We are tired of the Americans=
 here,' said Mohammad Aziz, 20, a Kabul police officer. 'We don't want them=
 to stay because they keep insulting our religion.'"

Welcome to the One Percent Recovery
http://www.truth-out.org/welcome-1-percent-recovery/1331396893
Mike Konczal, New Deal 2.0: "As the one percent reap 93 percent of the inco=
me gains from the recovery, we're rapidly returning to pre-New Deal levels =
of inequality =E2=80=A6 It's important to remember that a series of choices=
 were made during the New Deal to react to runaway inequality, including ch=
anges to progressive taxation, financial regulation, monetary policy, labor=
 unionization, and the provisioning of public goods and guaranteed social i=
nsurance. A battle will be fought over the next decade on all these fronts.=

Confusion Surrounds Federal Review of Southern Leg of Keystone XL
http://www.truth-out.org/confusion-surrounds-federal-review-southern-leg-ke=

Lisa Song, InsideClimate News: "TransCanada's decision last week to build t=
he southern half of the rejected Keystone XL has raised a tricky question a=
bout who will regulate the project review =E2=80=A6 The process could be st=
ickier at the federal level. The U.S. State Department was the lead agency =
on the original Keystone XL because it crossed an international boundary. B=

The Problem With the Environment Is Not Too Many People
http://www.truth-out.org/problem-environment-not-too-many-people/1331163575
Eleanor J. Bader, Truthout: "We've all heard the claim repeatedly: humans p=
ollute, so if we just reduce the number of people - both the number being b=
orn and the number immigrating from point A to point B - the despoiling wil=
l cease and Eden will be restored. If only it could be so simple=E2=80=A6. =
'Too Many People?' is a clear and convincing challenge to the idea of popul=
ation control as political necessity."

A Field of Hawks
http://www.truth-out.org/field-hawks/1331398935
Eugene Robinson, Washington Post Writers Group: "Unless Ron Paul somehow wi=
ns the nomination, it looks as if a vote for the Republican presidential ca=
ndidate this fall will be a vote for war with Iran. No other conclusion can=
 be drawn from parsing the candidates' public remarks. Paul, of course, is =
basically an isolationist who believes it is none of our business if Iran w=
